as a member of an exploitative capitalist society it’s important to fill your day with “stupid bullshit” that nobody with money or influence cares about. never let them take your “stupid bullshit” from you. hold it close
So Voyager found out there is this bubble surrounding our solar system made up of solar material blown outwards by solar wind and acts as a border between the solar system and the rest of space has a temperature of 30,000-50,000 Kelvin.
For reference the surface of the sun has a temperature of roughly 5770 kelvin
Less of a “wall (of fire)” and more of a “fine mist (of fire)” – both Voyager craft passed through unharmed because the superheated particles are so spread out:
While not a hard edge, or a “wall” as it has sometimes been called, here both spacecraft measured temperatures of 30,000-50,000 kelvin (54,000-90,000 degrees Fahrenheit), which is why it is sometimes also referred to as a “wall of fire”. The craft survived the wall as, though the particles they measured were extremely energetic, the chances of collision in this particle-sparse region of space are so low that not enough heat could be transferred to the duo.
